Cover versions are a staple in music, sometimes they’re an abomination, but sometimes they are even better than the original version. Which covers do you think fall into this category?
For me this is one of my most obvious ones:
Compared to the original:
The original was so sickly sweet and MOR but VotB really brought it screaming into the 90s. I was so obsessed with their version back in the day, and it should have done much better than #25 in the UK charts, but then they are one of the most underrated bands of all time.
The original made #18, but the most successful version was by Kaci in2001 2002, who scraped into the top 10 with her version which was fun, but sounds so dated now.
What are your favourite cover versions? Post the cover and original so we don’t have to go searching.
